Item 1.         Business.

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Report”), references to the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Mustang Alliances, Inc., unless the context otherwise indicates.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Report contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current or anticipated products, sales and marketing efforts, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management, and other matters. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these similar terms. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash, which are explained below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under the applicable federal securities laws.

Corporate Background

Mustang Alliances, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on February 22, 2007, in the State of Nevada. We were focused on the business of marketing and selling anti-lock braking systems produced in China to the auto parts and auto manufacturing market of the United States. Since inception, the Company conducted virtually no business other than organizational matters, filing its Registration Statement on Form SB-2, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, file number 333-148431(the “Registration Statement”), and filings of periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On February 22, 2007, we issued an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to our officers and directors for the total consideration of $800.

On January 30, 2008, the “Company commenced its offering of up to a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.025 per share, pursuant to the Registration Statement. On February 29, 2008, the Company sold 2,800,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $70,000.00 and has determined to close the offering. The sale of the shares represents 26% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

Business Overview

The Company was focused on the business of marketing and selling anti-lock braking systems produced in China to the auto parts and auto manufacturing market of the United States. Due to the state of the economy, the Company has conducted virtually no business other than organizational matters, filing its Registration Statement and filings of periodic reports with the SEC. The Company has since abandoned its business plan and is now seeking an operating company with which to merge or to acquire. Therefore, the Company is considered a blank check company for purposes of this report. As defined in Section 7(b)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, a blank check company is a development stage company that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or an acquisition with an unidentified company or companies and is issuing "penny stock" securities as defined in Rule 3(a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Mustang’s current business plan is to attempt to identify and negotiate with a business target for the merger of that entity with and into Mustang. In certain instances, a target company may wish to become a subsidiary of Mustang or may wish to contribute or sell assets to Mustang rather than to merge. No assurances can be given that Mustang will be successful in identifying or negotiating with any target company. Mustang seeks to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to become a reporting or public company whose securities are qualified for trading in the United States secondary markets.

A business combination with a target company normally will involve the transfer to the target company of the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of Mustang, and the substitution by the target company of its own management and board of directors. No assurances can be given that Mustang will be able to enter into a business combination, or, if Mustang does enter into such a business combination, no assurances can be given as to the terms of a business combination, or as to the nature of the target company.

Since its inception on February 22, 2007, Mustang has not engaged in any business operations other than organizational matters, filing its Registration Statement on Form SB-2 and filings of periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The current and proposed business activities described herein classify Mustang as a blank check company.  The Securities and Exchange Commission and many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of blank check companies.

Competition

The Company is an insignificant participant among firms which engage in business combinations with, or financing of, development stage enterprises. There are many established management and financial consulting companies and venture capital firms which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources, technical expertise and experience than the Company. In view of the Company's limited financial resources and management availability, the Company will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage vis-a-vis the Company's competitors.

Regulation and Taxation

The Investment Company Act of 1940 defines an "investment company" as an issuer which is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading of securities.
 
 
2

 
 
While the Company does not intend to engage in such activities, the Company could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in the event the Company obtains or continues to hold a minority interest in a number of development stage enterprises. The Company could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs if required to register under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Accordingly, management will continue to review the Company's activities from time to time with a view toward reducing the likelihood the Company could be classified as an "investment company."

 The Company intends to structure a merger or acquisition in such manner as to minimize Federal and state tax consequences to the Company and to any target company.

Employees

The  Company's  only  employees  at the  present  time  are  its  officers  and directors,  who will devote as much time as the Board of Directors  determine is necessary to carry out the affairs of the Company.

Item 1A.      Risk Factors

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this Item 1A.

Item 1B.      Unresolved Staff Comments

None

Item 2.         Properties

We currently maintain our corporate offices at 410 Park Avenue, 15th Floor, New York, NY 10022. We do not pay rent for this space because the amount of the space we use at such office is de minimis. We believe that this space will be sufficient until we start generating revenues and need to hire employees.

Item 3.         Legal Proceedings.

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or in which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of voting securities of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company. The Company’s property is not the subject of any pending legal proceedings.

Plan of Operation

During the next 12 months, the Company intends to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in one or more business opportunities presented to it by persons or firms who or which desire to seek the perceived advantages of a publicly held corporation. At this time, the Company has no plan, proposal, agreement, understanding or arrangement to acquire or merge with any specific business or company, and the Company has not identified any specific business or company for investigation and evaluation. No member of Management or promoter of the Company has had any material discussions with any other company with respect to any acquisition of that company.
 
The Company will not restrict its search to any specific business, industry or geographical location, and the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. The discussion of the proposed plan of operation under this caption and throughout this Annual Report is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of the Company's virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities.
 
The Company intends to obtain funds in one or more private placements to finance the operation of any acquired business. Persons purchasing securities in these placements and other shareholders will likely not have the opportunity to participate in the decision relating to any acquisition. The Company's proposed business is sometimes referred to as a "blind pool" because any investors will entrust their investment monies to the Company's management before they have a chance to analyze any ultimate use to which their money may be put. Consequently, the Company's potential success is heavily dependent on the Company's management, which will have virtually unlimited discretion in searching for and entering into a business opportunity. None of the officers and directors of the Company has had any experience in the proposed business of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any funds in private placements. In any private placement, management may purchase shares on the same terms as offered in the private placement.
 
Management anticipates that it will only participate in one potential business venture. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in the Company because it will not permit the Company to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another. The Company may seek a business opportunity with a firm which only recently commenced operations, or a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, or seeking to develop a new product or service, or an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in the need for additional capital which is perceived to be easier to raise by a public company. In some instances, a business opportunity may involve the acquisition or merger with a corporation which does not need substantial additional cash but which desires to establish a public trading market for its common stock. The Company may purchase assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various businesses or purchase existing businesses as subsidiaries.
 
The Company anticipates that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries, and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the benefits of a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of a publicly traded corporation may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for the principals of a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes) for all shareholders, and other factors. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

As part of any transaction, the acquired company may require that management or other stockholders of the Company sell all or a portion of their shares to the acquired company, or to the principals of the acquired company. It is anticipated that the sales price of such shares will be lower than the current market price or anticipated market price of the Company's Common Stock. The Company's funds are not expected to be used for purposes of any stock purchase from insiders. The Company shareholders will not be provided the opportunity to approve or consent to such sale. The opportunity to sell all or a portion of their shares in connection with an acquisition may influence management's decision to enter into a specific transaction. However, management believes that since the anticipated sales price will be less than market value, that the potential of a stock sale by management will be a material factor on their decision to enter a specific transaction.

The above description of potential sales of management stock is not based upon any corporate bylaw, shareholder or board resolution, or contract or agreement. No other payments of cash or property are expected to be received by Management in connection with any acquisition.
 
The Company has not formulated any policy regarding the use of consultants or outside advisors, but does not anticipate that it will use the services of such persons.

The Company has, and will continue to have, insufficient capital with which to provide the owners of business opportunities with any significant cash or other assets. However, management believes the Company will offer owners of business opportunities the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in a public company at substantially less cost than is required to conduct an initial public offering. The owners of the business opportunities will, however, incur significant post-merger or acquisition registration costs in the event they wish to register a portion of their shares for subsequent sale. The Company will also incur significant legal and accounting costs in connection with the acquisition of a business opportunity including the costs of preparing post-effective amendments, Forms 8-K, agreements and related reports and documents nevertheless, the officers and directors of the Company have not conducted market research and are not aware of statistical data which would support the perceived benefits of a merger or acquisition transaction for the owners of a business opportunity.

The Company does not intend to make any loans to any prospective merger or acquisition candidates or to unaffiliated third parties.

Sources of Opportunities

The Company anticipates that business opportunities for possible acquisition will be referred by various sources, including its officers and directors, professional advisers, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and others who may present unsolicited proposals.

The Company will seek a potential business opportunity from all known sources, but will rely principally on personal contacts of its officers and directors as well as indirect associations between them and other business and professional people. It is not presently anticipated that the Company will engage professional firms specializing in business acquisitions or reorganizations.

The officers and directors of the Company are currently employed in other positions and will devote only a portion of their time (not more than three hour per week) to the business affairs of the Company, until such time as an acquisition has been determined to be highly favorable, at which time they expect to spend full time in investigating and closing any acquisition for a period of two weeks. In addition, in the face of competing demands for their time, the officers and directors may grant priority to their full-time positions rather than to the Company.

Evaluation of Opportunities

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the officers and directors of the Company. Management intends to concentrate on identifying prospective business opportunities which may be brought to its attention through present associations with management. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, management will consider such matters as the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and other financial requirements; history of operation, if any; prospects for the future; present and expected competition; the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management; the potential for further research, development or exploration; specific risk factors not now foreseeable but which then may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of the Company; the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products, services or trades; name identification; and other relevant factors. Officers and directors of each Company will meet personally with management and key personnel of the firm sponsoring the business opportunity as part of their investigation. To the extent possible, the Company intends to utilize written reports and personal investigation to evaluate the above factors. The Company will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements cannot be obtained.

It may be anticipated that any opportunity in which the Company participates will present certain risks. Many of these risks cannot be adequately identified prior to selection of the specific opportunity, and the Company's shareholders must, therefore, depend on the ability of management to identify and evaluate such risk. In the case of some of the opportunities available to the Company, it may be anticipated that the promoters thereof have been unable to develop a going concern or that such business is in its development stage in that it has not generated significant revenues from its principal business activities prior to the Company's anticipation. There is a risk, even after the Company's participation in the activity and the related expenditure of the Company's funds, that the combined enterprises will still be unable to become a going concern or advance beyond the development stage. Many of the opportunities may involve new and untested products, processes, or market strategies which may not succeed. Such risks will be assumed by the Company and, therefore, its shareholders.

 The Company will not restrict its search for any specific kind of business, but may acquire a venture which is in its preliminary or development stage, which is already in operation, or in essentially any stage of its corporate life. It is currently impossible to predict the status of any business in which the Company may become  engaged,  in that such  business may need  additional  capital,  may merely desire to have its shares  publicly  traded,  or may seek other perceived advantages which the Company may offer.

Acquisition of Opportunities

In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, the Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, franchise or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. It may also purchase stock or assets of an existing business.  On the consummation of a transaction, it is possible that the present management and shareholders of the Company will not be in control of the Company. In addition, a majority or all of the  Company's  officers  and  directors  may,  as  part  of  the  terms  of the acquisition  transaction,  resign and be replaced by new officers and  directors without a vote of the Company's shareholders.

It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable Federal and state securities laws.  In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of this transaction, the Company may agree to register such securities either at the time the transaction is consummated, under certain conditions, or at specified time thereafter.

The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in the Company's Common Stock may have a depressive effect on such market. While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so called "tax free" reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In order to obtain tax free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, the shareholders of the Company, including investors in this offering, would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which could result in significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders.
 
As part of the Company's investigation, officers and directors of the Company will meet personally with management and key personnel, may visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis or verification of certain information provided, check reference of management and key personnel, and take other reasonable investigative measures, to the extent of the Company's limited financial resources and management expertise.
 
The manner in which each Company participates in an opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the Company and other parties, the management of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such other management.
 
With respect to any mergers or acquisitions, negotiations with target company management will be expected to focus on the percentage of the Company which target company shareholders would acquire in exchange for their shareholdings in the target company. Depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and liabilities, the Company's shareholders will in all likelihood hold a lesser percentage ownership interest in the Company following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event the Company acquires a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the Company's then shareholders, including purchasers in this offering.
 
The Company will not have sufficient funds (unless it is able to raise funds in a private placement) to undertake any significant development, marketing and manufacturing of any products which may be acquired.
 
Accordingly, following the acquisition of any such product, the Company will, in all likelihood, be required to either seek debt or equity financing or obtain funding from third parties, in exchange for which the Company would probably be required to give up a substantial portion of its interest in any acquired product. There is no assurance that the Company will be able either to obtain additional financing or interest third parties in providing funding for the further development, marketing and manufacturing of any products acquired.
 
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity the costs therefore incurred in the related investigation would not be recoverable.
 
Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in the loss of the Company of the related costs incurred.

Management believes that the Company may be able to benefit from the use of "leverage" in the acquisition of a business opportunity.   Leveraging a transaction involves the acquisition of a business through incurring significant indebtedness for a large percentage of the purchase price for that business.

Through a leveraged transaction, the Company would be required to use less of its available funds for acquiring the business opportunity and, therefore, could commit those funds to the operations of the business opportunity, to acquisition of other business opportunities or to other activities. The borrowing involved in a leveraged transaction will ordinarily be secured by the assets of the business opportunity to be acquired. If the business opportunity acquired is not able to generate sufficient revenues to make payments on the debt incurred by the Company to acquire that business opportunity, the lender would be able to exercise the remedies provided by law or by contract. These leveraging techniques, while reducing the amount of funds that the Company must commit to acquiring a business opportunity, may correspondingly increase the risk of loss to the Company. No assurance can be given as to the terms or the availability of financing for any acquisition by the Company. No assurance can be given as to the terms or the availability of financing for any acquisition by the Company. During periods when interest rates are relatively high, the benefits of leveraging are not as great as during periods of lower interest rates because the investment in the business opportunity held on a leveraged basis will only be profitable if it generates sufficient revenues to cover the related debt and other costs of the financing. Lenders from which the Company may obtain funds for purposes of a leveraged buy-out may impose restrictions on the future borrowing, distribution, and operating policies of the Company. It is not possible at this time to predict the restrictions, if any, which lenders may impose or the impact thereof on the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our balance sheet as of December 31, 2009 reflects cash assets in the amount of $604. Cash and cash equivalent from inception to date have been sufficient to provide the operating capital necessary to operate to date. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $17,379 at December 2009. On October 5, 2007, the Company issued for aggregate consideration of $40,000, a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $40,000. The promissory note has a line of credit of up to $200,000 and was due October 5, 2009, and bears interest at 8% per annum. During November 2009, the holder of the Company's promissory note in connection with its line of credit, extended the due date of the Note until October 5, 2011. The note continues to bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum.
 
The focus of Mustang’s efforts is to acquire or develop an operating business. Despite no active operations at this time, management intends to continue in business and has no intention to liquidate the Company. Mustang has considered various business alternatives including the possible acquisition of an existing business, but to date has found possible opportunities unsuitable or excessively priced. Mustang does not contemplate limiting the scope of its search to any particular industry. Management has considered the risk of possible opportunities as well as their potential rewards. Management has invested time evaluating several proposals for possible acquisition or combination; however, none of these opportunities were pursued. Mustang presently owns no real property and at this time has no intention of acquiring any such property. Mustang’s major expected expenses are comprised of professional fees primarily incident to its reporting requirements.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Mustang will continue as a going concern. Mustang’s recurring losses from operations, stockholders' deficiency and working capital deficiency and lack of revenue generating operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Management believes Mustang will continue to incur losses and negative cash flows from operating activities for the foreseeable future and will need additional equity or debt financing to sustain its operations until it can achieve profitability and positive cash flows, if ever. Management plans to seek additional debt and/or equity financing for Mustang, but cannot assure that such financing will be available on acceptable terms.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its business plan or that the successful implementation of such business plan will actually improve the Company’s operating results.

Going Concern Consideration
 
The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced planned principal operations.  The Company had no revenues and has incurred a net loss of $29,939 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and a cumulative net loss of $125,543 for the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009.  In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $17,379 and a stockholders' deficiency of $73,779 at December 31, 2009.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources.  The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business.  Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
 
The Company is attempting to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to raise the additional funds it requires.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Board of Directors and Stockholders
Mustang Alliances, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Mustang Alliances, Inc. (a Development Stage Company) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  Also, an audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mustang Alliances, Inc. at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company is a development stage company, has incurred a cumulative net loss since inception, and has a working capital deficiency and stockholders' deficiency. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
NOTE 1 -       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Mustang Alliances, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated on February 22, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
The Company has not yet generated revenues from planned principal operations and is considered a development stage company.  The Company originally intended to market and sell anti-lock braking systems produced in China to the auto parts and auto manufacturing market in the United States.  The Company has since abandoned its business plan and is now seeking an operating company with which to merge or acquire.  Accordingly, the Company is now considered a blank check company.  There is no assurance, however, that the Company will achieve its objectives or goals.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
For revenue from product sales, the Company will recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (SAB No. 104), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB No. 101). SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgment regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowance, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs will be charged to operations when incurred.  The Company did not incur any advertising costs during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled.  A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

MUSTANG ALLIANCES, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 -       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Loss Per Share
 
The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share as there are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding (options and warrants).
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development costs will be charged to expense in the period incurred.  The Company did not incur any research and development costs during the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009.
 
Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and loans payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
 
Accounting Standards Codification
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Codification 105, "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" ("ASC 105"). On July 1, 2009, the FASB completed ASC 105 as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), superseding all then-existing authoritative accounting and reporting standards, except for rules and interpretive releases for the SEC under authority of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for Securities and Exchange Commission registrants. ASC 105 reorganizes the authoritative literature comprising U.S. GAAP into a topical format that eliminates the current GAAP hierarchy. ASC 105 is effective for the Company in its year ended December 31, 2009. ASC 105 is not intended to change U.S. GAAP and will have no impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, since it completely supersedes existing standards, it will affect the way the Company references authoritative accounting pronouncements in its financial statements and other disclosure documents.
 
Subsequent Events
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard which established general accounting standards and disclosure for subsequent events. In accordance with this standard, the Company evaluated subsequent events through March 25, 2010.

MUSTANG ALLIANCES, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 2 -        Going Concern
 
The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced planned principal operations.  The Company had no revenues and has incurred a net loss of $29,939 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and a cumulative net loss of $125,543 for the period February 22, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2009.  In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $17,379 and a stockholders' deficiency of $73,779 at December 31, 2009.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
 
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company is attempting to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to raise the additional funds it requires.
 
NOTE 3 -       Fair Value
 
Fair Value Measurement
 
FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to measure fair value.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 3 -       Fair Value (Continued)
 
Fair Value Measurement (Continued)
 
The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

·  
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access.
·  
Level 2 inputs are inputs (other than quoted prices included within level 1) that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly.
·  
Level 3 are unobservable inputs for the assets or liability and rely on management's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  (The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company's own data.)
 
The following table presents the Company's fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2009.

Fair Value Option
 
FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, provides a fair value option election that allows entities to irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attributable for certain financial assets and liabilities.  Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings as they occur for those assets and liabilities for which the election is made.  The election is made on an instrument by instrument basis at initial recognition of an asset or liability or upon an event that gives rise to a new basis of accounting for that instrument.  The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its financial assets or liabilities, and therefore, there was no impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
NOTE 4 -       Loans Payable
 
Loans payable consist of various advances made to the Company during the fourth quarter of 2009, bearing interest at 8% per annum and payable on demand.

MUSTANG ALLIANCES, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 5 -        Long-Term Debt
 
On October 5, 2007, the Company issued for aggregate consideration of $40,000, a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $40,000.  The promissory note has a line of credit of up to $200,000 and was due October 5, 2009, and bears interest at 8% per annum.
 
During November 2009, the holder of the Company's promissory note in connection with its line of credit, extended the due date of the Note until October 5, 2011.  The note continues to bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum.
 
NOTE 6 -       Common Stock

In February 2007 the Company issued 8,000,000 shares of common stock at $.0001 to the Founders of the Company for $800.
 
In February 2008 the Company sold 2,800,000 shares of common stock at $.025 per share pursuant to its public offering.  The Company received net proceeds of $44,964.
 
In February 2008 the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock valued at $.06 per share for services rendered.  The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $6,000 in connection with this issuance.
 
NOTE 7 -        Preferred Stock

The Company’s Board of Directors may, without further action by the Company’s stockholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of any authorized but unissued or unreserved shares of preferred stock in series and at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series.  The holders of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of the common stock.  Furthermore, the board of directors could issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock.
 
NOTE 8 -       Income Taxes

At December 31, 2009, the Company had available net-operating loss carryforwards for Federal tax purposes of approximately $126,000, which may be applied against future taxable income, if any, from 2027 to 2029. Certain significant changes in ownership of the Company may restrict the future utilization of these tax loss carryforwards.
 
At December 31, 2009, the Company had a deferred tax asset of approximately $43,000 representing the benefit of its net operating loss carryforwards.  The Company has not recognized the tax benefit because realization of the tax benefit is uncertain and thus a valuation allowance has been fully provided against the deferred tax asset.  The difference between the Federal Statutory Rate of 34% and the Company's effective tax rate of 0% is due to an increase in the valuation allowance of approximately $12,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Item 9.        Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

The Company has had no disagreements with its certified public accountants with respect to accounting practices or procedures or financial disclosure.

Item 9A.      Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. We believe our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive, principal operating and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records, that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the framework in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” promulgated by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, commonly referred to as the “COSO” criteria. Based on the assessment performed, management believes that as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based upon the COSO criteria. Additionally, based on management’s assessment, the Company determined that there were no material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Controls
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, there was no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
 
The Company’s management, including the chief executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that its disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
 
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management’s override of the control. The design of any systems of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Individual persons perform multiple tasks which normally would be allocated to separate persons and therefore extra diligence must be exercised during the period these tasks are combined. Management is aware of the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the small number of employees currently dealing with general administrative and financial matters. Although management will periodically reevaluate this situation, at this point it considers the risks associated with such lack of segregation of duties and that the potential benefits of adding employees to segregate such duties do not justify the substantial expense associated with such increases. It is also recognized the Company has not designated an audit committee and no member of the board of directors has been designated or qualifies as a financial expert. The Company should address these concerns at the earliest possible opportunity.

Item 9B.      Other Information

There are no further disclosures. All information that was required to be disclosed in a Form 8-K during the fourth quarter 2009 has been disclosed.

There are no familial relationships among any of our directors or officers. None of our directors or officers is a director in any other U.S. reporting companies. None of our directors or officers has been affiliated with any company that has filed for bankruptcy within the last five years. The Company is not aware of any proceedings to which any of the Company’s officers or directors, or any associate of any such officer or director, is a party adverse to the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to it or any of its subsidiaries.

Each director of the Company serves for a term of one year or until the successor is elected at the Company's annual shareholders' meeting and is qualified, subject to removal by the Company's shareholders. Each officer serves, at the pleasure of the board of directors, for a term of one year and until the successor is elected at the annual meeting of the board of directors and is qualified.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires officers and directors of the Company and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in their ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and forward copies of such filings to the Company. As of December 31, 2009, the officers and directors of the Company are not subject to the provisions of Section 16(a).

Auditors
 
Wolinetz, Lafazan & Company, P.C., an independent registered public accounting firm, is our auditor.
 
We do not currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial and accounting officers. We do not have a “financial expert” on the board or an audit committee or nominating committee.
 
 
23

 
 
Potential Conflicts of Interest
 
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company has only two directors, and to date, such directors have been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.
 
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

There are no legal proceedings that have occurred within the past five years concerning our directors, or control persons which involved a criminal conviction, a criminal proceeding, an administrative or civil proceeding limiting one's participation in the securities or banking industries, or a finding of securities or commodities law violations.
